Luyện nghe bài hát A Better Place

It was an mornin' bar room
And the place just up
And the little man came in so
And he at his cups

And the broad who the whiskey
She was a big old girl
She tried to fight her empty
By smilin' at the

And she said, "Hey bub
been awhile since you been around
Where the you been hidin'?
And why you so down?"

The man just sat there
Like he'd never a sound
The waitress, she gave out with a
And not the least put off, she spoke once again

She said, "I don't want to you
Consider understood
I know I'm not no beauty
But I can listen good"

And the little man took his drink in his
And he raised it to his
He took a couple of
And he that waitress this story

I am the watchman
Down at Miller's and Die
And I watch the rustin'
I the time go by

A week ago at the diner, I to get a bite
And this here lovely
She sat two from my right
And Lord, Lord, Lord she was

You see, she was so beautiful
She warm a winter frost
But she long past lonely
And well now I, I was

Now I'm not much of a
Or a easy guy
But I to glide on over and give her one good try
And Lord, Lord, Lord she was a try

But I was like a school boy
I stammered out some
It did not to matter much
'Cause I don't think she

She just clear on through me
To a space in my head
And it me into silence
As quietly she

"If you want me to with you
That's all right me
'Cause I know I'm goin'
And anywhere's a better to be
Anywhere's a place to be"

When I drove her to my boarding
And I her up to my room
And I to turn on the only light
To up the gloom

But she said, "Please leave the off
Oh, I don't the dark"
And as her all tumbled 'round her
I hear my heart

The moonlight upon her
As she lay in my bed
It was the kind of scene I
Had imagined in my

I just could not it
To that she was real
And as I to tell her, she said
"Shh, I know how you feel"

"And if you to come here with me
all right with me
'Cause I've been, oh, so
someone is a better way to be
Anywhere's a place to be"

Well, the came so swiftly
I her in my arms
She slept a baby
Snug and safe from

I did not want to her
Or dare to break the
So, before she I went out
To buy us both food

I came with a paper bag
To find she was gone
She'd left a six word
Sayin', "It's that I moved on"

You know that took her bar rag
And she it across her eyes
And as she spoke her came out
As somethin' a sigh

She said, "I wish that I was
Or that you halfway blind
And I wish I weren't so fat
I wish that you mine"

"And I wish you'd come with me
When I for home
For we know all about emptiness
And all alone"

And the man
at the empty glass in his hand
And he smiled a crooked
He said, "I I'm out of gin
And I know we both have so lonely"

"And if you me to come with you
That's alright me
'Cause I know I'm nowhere
And anywhere's a better to be"
